@Zara Doering has me inspired to work on my shoulderstands without resting my shoulders in the bar. So this was a good effort. And I pushed far enough to discover that the balance point for stacking my hips is my wrists NOT my shoulders. At least I didn't kick my toe this time.

Each Sunday, I post an update for records I’ve broken the previous week. This is for accountability and to track my progress :) Feel free to comment with any of your new records from the past week too so we can celebrate you 🥳

Just curious and doing some research atm on combat skills… are you trained in a certain type and why did you choose that particular style? Personally, I’m focusing on strength and calisthenics skills this year to build a solid foundation before learning combat skills next year. But I’m not sure which style to pursue. Basically I wanna have ninja street skills, so nothing super rigid and performative, but more real life defence/offence should the world go craycray, y’know? Feel free to share your experiences / curiosities and let’s see where this journey takes us…

As right now I'm having fun with some exercises before I go out, I tried headstand..... It's not 100% but I could hold more than the last time.

@Ajay S introduced me to this Hanuman Dand move, so I worked it into a flow for my warm up this morning. It's a dynamic down dog lizard, press up to up dog combo. added some corkscrew, three leg dog, splits, side crow and figure 4 crow. Nice and warm for the gym.
